Fig. 2: Distribution and niche differentiation of fungal peptidase and CAZyme genes and transcripts.
From: Organic matter degradation by oceanic fungi differs between polar and non-polar waters
The distribution of samples and niche differentiation of genes and transcripts encoding total (A) and secretory (B) fungal peptidases, as well as total (C) and secretory (D) fungal CAZymes in the small (0.2–3 µm, SF) and large ( > 3 µm, LF) size fractions in non-polar and polar oceans. Scatter plots showing the relationships between total (E) and secretory (F) fungal peptidases and CAZymes in the SF and LF size fractions across non-polar and polar oceans. Different dot shaped for samples from genes or transcripts, colored by size fraction. Linear regression lines are shown for non-polar and polar groups. Two-sided Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated separately for non-polar and polar oceans. Mantel tests between environmental parameters and profiles of total and secretory fungal peptidases (G) and CAZymes (H). Mantel’s r and p values are indicated based on the color and the width of the connecting lines as specified in the figure legend. Pearson correlation coefficients (two-sided) were calculated between environmental parameters. ns, ≥0.05, * <0.05, **<0.01. Different dot shapes for samples from genes or transcripts; subgroups of samples by different colors. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
